Facilities Services Operative Level 2

Join to apply for the Facilities Services Operative Level 2 role at Inspire ATA

Keeping spaces functional, secure and welcoming. This occupation is found in the facilities management (FM) industry both in the "supplier" side (i.e. those companies that supply FM services to their customers) and the "client" side (i.e. the recipients of those contracted FM services). A Facilities Services Operative is a broad description of someone who provides facilities services support to customers and FM departments.

This may include services such as security, supporting hard FM functions i.e. maintenance and engineering, and Soft FM i.e. cleaning, catering, front-of-house logistics, post-room services and portering.

The core knowledge, skills and behaviours you'll develop on the course:

• Legislative requirements and responsibilities relating to health and safety, access & inclusion, manual handling, working at heights, hazardous substances (COSHH), reporting of injuries, diseases etc (RIDDOR).
• How to carry out a conditions survey and prepare reports.
• Types and sources of FM-related information (e.g. on health and safety, energy usage, efficiency of heating and lighting systems, security and access systems).

We work with high-quality training providers to deliver a wide range of training programmes through a blended learning approach that is tailored to each learner's needs. Inspire ATA recruits and employs each apprentice on behalf of the 'host' client, enabling us to offer additional support and a better experience for both apprentice and client.

We can also offer flexi-job apprenticeships which means we are able to offer short term contracts and other non-standard employment models
